What is Beth Golay reading?
Beth is the marketing manager at Watermark Books & Cafe and has been with the store since 2001. Her favorite genre is literary fiction, but she also loves creative non-fiction and reading the classics she should have attempted a long time ago. Her greatest reading accomplishment is a toss-up: Reading four books in one weekend (documented in January 2004) or completing the 1438 pages of Dumas' The Count of Monte Cristo.
Beth writes our weekly News & Notes e-letter and also leads the Watermark Book Club. Check our bookclub link for the date of their next monthly meeting.
Here's what Beth's been reading:

When She Woke by Hillary Jordan.
This futuristic novel examines what our already-divided society might look like if the polar political and religious views are carried to the extreme. In this world where church and state are no longer separate, a scarlet letter becomes scarlet skin (or green... yellow... orange) for the world to know your offense; offenders are tagged and can be located in real time with a simple internet search; vigilantes are given free reign to deal with offenders as they deem necessary; and those on the other side of the line drawn in the sand are labeled terrorists. With When She Woke, Jordan continues to pen eye-opening novels which leave her readers slack-jawed in contemplation.
